Where is Microsoft in new mobility?

The tech giant doesn’t want to build cars or run mobility services, but its expertise underpins the sector’s transformation. Megan Lampinen hears more

Software is transforming the automotive industry from a product focus to a service-based business model and ushering in an era of smart, clean mobility. The development ecosystem required for this is also evolving thanks to greater use of artificial intelligence (AI) and Industrial IoT. For Microsoft, the world’s largest vendor of computer software and one of the leading players in cloud computing services, it’s an opportunity to accelerate these transformative trends.

“Within automotive we serve as a tech-enabler,” explains Sanjay Ravi, General Manager, Automotive, Mobility and Transportation Industry at Microsoft.

Automotive World sat down with Ravi to hear more about the tech giant’s influence on the future of mobility.
